I've heard that at least part of Smithfield Market is (or recently was) in danger of demolition. If anyone knows about this, it would be good to add to the article. [[User:Jmabel|Jmabel]] 05:53, 20 Nov 2003 (UTC) |

The article says tata swindlers and coin forgers were executed by boiling at Smithfield. I think this method of execution in England was only in force for poisoners, and even then only between 1531-1546. Elsewhere in Europe I believe forgers were subjected to the penalty under the Holy Roman Empire, but not in England.

Boiling Alive
[edit]The article says tata swindlers and coin forgers were executed by boiling at Smithfield. I think this method of execution in England was only in force for poisoners, and even then only between 1531-1546.
